About Jeff’s work: Houston Series: Except for the shot of the single jellyfish, the rocket/jellyfish series is a combination of shots. The pictures of the jellyfish were taken at the aquarium at Moody Gardens in Galveston. The pictures of the rockets were taken at NASA in Houston. I used photo-editing software to crop and morph the photographs somewhat. The main technique here is that photo-editing software allows two or more shots to be merged. I picked out some shots of jellyfish and some shots of rockets and merged the ones I thought would combine well: one jellyfish per rocket. It's a process of trail and error to find interesting combinations, but hopefully, I produced a few you will enjoy. Galveston Series: I took these shots on the Galveston beach (across from the Holiday Inn) and then tried to find lighting combinations and photo-editing morphing techniques (negative, hue and situation) that allowed traditional beach shots to become something different.
